1. A method of a network node of a cellular communication system adapted to communicate with a wireless communication device, the method comprising:

  • acquiring a signal processing capability of the wireless communication device;

    scheduling, based on the acquired signal processing capability, one or more first time-frequency resources of a first transmission occasion for transmission to the wireless communication device, wherein the first transmission occasion is comprised in a first occasion of communication between the network node and the wireless communication device;

    determining, based on the acquired signal processing capability, a length of a time interval between the first and a second occasion of communication between the network node and the wireless communication device;

    transmitting data to the wireless communication device during the first transmission occasion using the scheduled one or more first time-frequency resources; and

    performing an operation of communication between the network node and the wireless communication device during the second occasion of communication;

    wherein, if the acquired signal processing capability does not fulfill a signal processing capability requirement, the length of the time interval is determined such that a first length is selected if the scheduled one or more first time-frequency resources have a first frequency span and a second length is selected if the scheduled one or more first time-frequency resources have a second frequency span, where the first length exceeds the second length and the first frequency span exceeds the second frequency span.
